Would a horse rather have eleven light little taps with the whip/reins by Olivia that do not leave a mark or nine huge haymakers that leave welts from another male driver? The whip rules are pathetic

Thanks Ted great to see her so positive and good news on all the surgeries...hopefully it can continue to progress well for her.  

I think one of them got out of bed on the wrong side. Double the whip and rein infringements compared to a normal day.

NYSE historically reacts, sometimes violently, to news media as seems currently but always falls back to fundamentals which set buys and sells. The MAGA slogan is a driver but supporting fundamentals needed to create a genuine rising market. Current analysts predicting a steady rising market for next 60 days as favourable fundamentals are predicted. Any Trump manipulation may not in fact be the reality or the current driver but rather anticipated fundamentals. Agree entirely that a sector has indeed cashed in

Ulrika Holmquist. Positive news from Ulrika Holmquist after the accident: "The doctors are very pleased" 12 May 2025 17:26 During Thursday's races at Norwegian Övrevoll, jockey Ulrika Holmquist was involved in an accident in connection with race 6 when the horse she was riding fell. Many people wonder how it is with Ulrika and now after five days she is ready to go out with several positive news. What happened? "I felt that the horse was about to fall and just then it just went straight down. I landed on my head and neck and was lying on the track. Then I was taken by ambulance to Ullevål Hospital. When I got to the hospital, I had a serious concussion and felt very bad. It was very scary not really understanding what was happening, but it's much better now. After several examinations and yesterday's surgery, the doctor finally came with the news today – they were very happy with the result. "I have fractures in three thoracic vertebrae in my back that have now been operated on and stabilized. In addition, I have nine broken ribs and a punctured lung. No nerves in my back have been damaged, which is absolutely fantastic. I have a fracture in my neck, but after two MRI X-rays, they were able to assess that it was stable, so the prognosis is very good. Ulrika says that it feels like she has been given a second chance in life, that she is very grateful and tries to stay positive. "I'm so grateful for everyone who contacted me after the accident. Even though I haven't answered everyone, I've read every single message and greeting. It means so much to me. The love from the gallop family is great and it means so much. I'm grateful to be a part of it. In a few weeks, the doctor estimates that Ulrika will be on her feet and be able to start with lighter activities. "I had surgery yesterday and have been up and walking and standing today. The staff here said that they have never experienced anyone who has done it so quickly before, which feels very positive and gratifying. Ulrika will not ride any more races this galloping season. "Now my main focus is on healing and recovering at the right pace. Then we'll see what happens. The horse that Ulrika was riding, Mon Amant, unfortunately injured himself so seriously in the accident that he had to be put down. We wish Ulrika a good recovery!     Positive news from Ulrika Holmquist after the accident: "The doctors are very pleased" - Swedish Gallop

MATAMATA – RACE 8  BEST BET: LIFE OF RILEY Absolutely stormed home for a close-up finish here on the 17th, and looks primed to go one better. Gets the services of a top jock this time, and won’t mind if the track firms up — everything points to this being the one they’ll all need to catch. MAIN DANGER: BRADLEY Freshened and dropping back to the 1400m, a distance where he’s been placed in one of two starts. Could easily fly under the radar and run a big race if he’s tuned up — don’t dismiss. ROUGHIES: CHARMING EMPEROR Only 2.5L off the winner when fresh and that was against stronger fields than this. With a touch of luck in the running, could be the blowout at odds — one for the exotics at the very least.    

Thank you for the update from Ulrika. A long frustrating journey to full recovery, especially with the concussion.  Bones heal, the brain however takes its own sweet time to reset and the injury isn’t visible to others. Sending love to you all
